House Speaker Denies Jesse Jackson Rotunda HonorFebruary 21, 2026 10:04 PM Full SummaryHouse Speaker Mike Johnson rejected the Jackson family's bid for the civil rights icon to lie in honor in the U.S. Capitol Rotunda, following historical precedent reserved for former presidents, military leaders, and top officials.

Critics like NAACP President Derrick Johnson decried the move as a disregard for democracy, while defenders noted similar denials for figures like Charlie Kirk and Dick Cheney; Jackson's family plans memorials in Chicago, South Carolina, and possibly D.C. Key TakeawayRev. Jesse Jackson Sr., who marched alongside Martin Luther King Jr. and fought for voting rights, won't receive the Capitol's rare lie-in-honor tribute his family requested.

Nigerians Question Pro-Palestine Support After Attacks on Christians DismissedFebruary 20, 2026 12:39 AM Full SummaryOn February 18, CHI$OM posted on X about stepping back from pro-Palestine advocacy after commenters dismissed reports of violence against Nigerian Christians as fake. Nigeria leads global lists for Christian killings, with over 7,000 deaths in early 2025 from groups like Fulani militants and Boko Haram, though the government calls it general insecurity. The discussion highlights frustrations over selective attention, as Nigerians note more deaths locally than in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, while some defend pro-Palestine voices and urge focus on multiple causes. Key TakeawayCHI$OM shared how her support for Palestine faded when online voices called attacks on Nigerian Christians 'Zionist propaganda.' Her post struck a chord, drawing thousands who feel their pain gets overlooked. Context & EntitiesTopics
